India is a culturally diverse and rich country with seasonal festive celebrations that create a sense of community and harmony. In March, we celebrate summer festivals like Holi that bring the community together to celebrate the start of the harvest season. We have compiled a list of the big celebrations in March 2022 along with outfit ideas from Mayori. Happy holidays!

Maha Shivaratri
Maha Shivaratri is celebrated in reverence of Lord Shiva. It is believed to be the night when Shiva created the universe through his divine dance of creation, destruction, and preservation. The festival is celebrated throughout India differently but always with the same faith and love for Lord Shiva.

Ranga Panchami
Everyone's favorite holiday is Ranga Panchami! We all have nostalgic memories associated with Holi and the fun of being with friends, indulging in thandai, and throwing colors on each other. Even as adults, we love celebrating Holi with our family and friends, and it is always a special day!
Cotton works best for March because it is a wonderfully natural fabric that allows for body temperature regulation keeping you cool throughout the day. At Mayori, we create designs from 100% natural fabrics through sustainable production, ensuring Mother nature’s wellness as well as yours!
